Well, let's see...

Attempted to produce something that'd make some cO2 in my grow room.

Gallon jug
1 T. dry active yeast (3 lil' packages for $1)
5 cups sugar
1/2 gallon water
Top of gallon jug had a pencil sice hole punched in it

Worked ok. UNTIL I WOKE UP!!! Bad luck continues with JD...

I had the jug above, but to the side, of the plant... IT FUCKIN OVERFLOWED ONTO MY PLANT!!!!!!

Gay! So, pulled a branch 11" long.... :cry::evil:

To say the least I no longer have it in there... lol I got pissed and threw it outside...
------------------------------------

pH:5.6
ppm:1664
rez temp remains @ 78 degrees
temp: 90



------------------------------------
In the 3rd pic, you can see my black 'distance string' (lol) now set at 8" above colas.

Still got temp issues.

yeah man i have heard the same problem of people accidentally overflowing their diy co2. looks like the plant is filling in every day more and more. i tried to find pictures of my plant that looked the same as yours but i cant find pics, i have some on my old celly but it is smashed so i will see if i can get the pics off it somehow.

lol! I know what ya mean about smashed phones...

It IS filling in... but it's in it's like 4th week lol... and I know things haven't been perfect. And I know it's bagseed... but good experiments. I think pH played/plays a big part in this grow too...

ahahah thats funny if you look back at my grow i have some pics where i rigged some c02 above them.. needless to say i took mine out to

it may release co2 but its sugar water... attracts bugs i started to think and took mine down if you can get fresh air to em.. thats all you really need

That's Bad!!! Lol

------------------------------------

Seedlings doing aight. IT's hot as hell in there though!

Mom doing fine. Just basking in the sun (or so the thinks)

Too lazy to take any readings or anything. Let's just assume it's hot, dry, and no good. ?

Day 37 of Flowering


Did a rez change today.

10 gallons distilled water.
ppm=0

Added 60mL Botanicare Base (2-0-3)
ppm=165

Added 108mL Advanced Nutrients Bloom (0-5-5)
ppm=425

Added 10mL Advanced Nutrients Hammerhead (0-9-18)
ppm=550

Added 1T. Dr. Hornby's Big Bud (0-10-40)
ppm=850

ppm was low, so I added about 2tsp. base, 15mL bloom, 1 tsp. Hammerhead, and about 1 tsp. Big Bud.

Now ppm is at 1480.

Bought 'crystal' pH up. Was at 3.6. added .5 tsp. pH up.
5.2 pH.

Added more and more by hand to get pH at 5.8.

---------------------------------

IN PIC 5, THAT'S THE MOTHERS ROOM WITH THE GREEN LIGHT. YOU SEE MY COMPUTER IN THE BOTTOM LEFT HAND SIDE. DO YOU THINK I SHOULD WORRY ABOUT THE MONITOR'S LIGHT ON AND HAVING THE DOOR OPEN?? WILL THE MONITOR AFFECT THE GROWTH OF MOM??

Bought shit to make a wick cloner...

2 Rubbermaid containers
2-4pk. tiki torch wicks
Black spraypaint
1 bag perlite

Don't really have a use for it now, per se, but it'll come in handy soon.

Also got some root simulator/starter liquid...
Tape measure, twine, small manicuring scissors....
Odds and ends, heh..

I want to buy a light meter. Hardware stores got one that's for soil. A pH tester, soil wetness meter, and a light meter.

The range on the light says: 0-2000

lol WTF kind of measurement is this?

They said I'd have to go to a photography store and get a spectrometer... gay.

So I got the 2 fans on mom, and she seems to be lovin it.. I really got some airflow in there now... temps should be ok, but haven't takena digi reading..

Mercury thermometer says: 88 degrees and 38% humidity... seems fine...

I have my three sprouts going well. 1 more sprout popped up today. I got that 4" high velocity on the sprouts under 3-2ft. flourescent 22 (i think) watters.

My fan fucked with the sprouts makin them droop over, so I kept turning them to train the stem to be stronger. Doing well. Temps are fine. A little high, but what the fuck? It's Arizona!! Oops, ha!

Numbered the sprouts 1-4. 1 being the first and oldest sprout, 4 being the newest youngest sprout. Will continue to number as more sprouts (hopefully) come up!

Pictures 8, 9, 10 are sprouts 1, 2, and 3, respectively

The 11th & 12th picture are the latest sprout, just different angles..
